My kids had an absolutely wonderful time. There is so much for them to do and explore. Especially the dinosaur exhibit, which my kids both feared and loved. The games, the puzzles, the exhibits, the animals, the activities; all in all well worth the price and time.

We came for the Adults Only Science Night Dead event and it was so much fun!! They had a lot of intereactive activities, interesting talks and events going on from 8 pm- 11:30 pm. They also had alcohol and food for purchase. Overall great experience!

We had an amazing time at the Science Center. My children got a chance to get a skunk named Memphis coincidentally my youngest son is named Memphis as well.
They have great educational events throughout the day and have a theater as well all included in your cost of admission.

This place had something for my entire family to enjoy from my one year old to my eleven year old.

Cool place! We look forward to returning soon.

My daughter is in the birthday party ad makes it feel amazing every visit and seeing her there we are so art and science here at lovelyhomecreations.com IG: missmarialhc

This place is really cool and has so much to offer for all ages. The Orlando Science Center has movies featured on their 8 story viewing screen and also in the 3-D theater throughout the day to space out activities or just give active little minds a rest. The exhibits on each floor are tailored to separate age groups but have something to offer each person regardless of age. For parents that have EBT or SNAP benefits the center offers admission for just $3 each allowing families with smaller incomes an opportunity to experience all this place has to offer.

Don t miss out on such a unique asset to Orlando! Easy to spend hours here with kids of all ages 2-13 range. Extremely well maintained free to roam environment full of science that adults and kids can enjoy. Don t forget to get in an IMAX film in the 360 dome cinema!

My kids (6, 4) love this place. We recently moved to the area and are now members. There is a climbing/play structure, an interactive "Orange Grove" with balls and multiple activities, a water table play area, a theater for dress up, stem activities, craft sessions, live animals, dinosaurs, and so much more. There is also a baby/toddler area in Kids town, the Orange Grove, and the water tables so that everyone can safely have fun.

Don't plan on a one or two hour visit! This place deserves the whole say. Great fun for the whole family. I
I don't know what took me so long to visit. Many rooms to visit with all kinds of tactile experiments!. I missed the shows and they also have 3D movies. I swear I underplayed this trip. Next time will be for whole day.

This is a great activity for young and old. 4 floors of exploration to stimulate your senses and enhance your knowledge about various areas of focus. It is very interactive, and perfect for explorers and/or those that love to learn hands on. It's in doors, wheelchair accessible, very child friendly, and you can't beat the price compared to other activities like Ripleys and such.

Awesome Place! Very close to a lot of other venues, not too far from Downtown Orlando, O-Town, CityWalk or Disney Springs.
Liked the vertical set up, lots of cool exhibits and a good amount of nature related items to peruse through. Some cool theater events and lots to do, kids or adults.
Highly recommend the Science Night Live event they host.

The eclipse day was pure chaos. My 8 year old son got hit in the face and I got pushed and shoved in the line for eclipse glasses. It was very poorly managed, too many people and not enough preparation. We just left because it was getting too crazy.

We arrived early on a discount Sunday and still had to wait in a long line. Was expecting several solid exhibts to let my science nerd out and basically spent the entire time pouting. Things were very basic with very little hard science to really dig into. A lot of the tech used is now rather dated. We went to two viewings in the movie dome, the first felt out of focus most of the time. The second was a lazer show which was badly out of sync and the controllers were, sadly, old tech. I expected a lot better. The gift shop was a disappointment, but I recon good enough for cheap souvenirs. To exerberate the situation it became extremely busy after about noon, by three we just had to leave. We will seek our science fix elsewhere.

Good science center, lots of hands-on stuff, big large hallways and halls, good traveling exhibit, good volunteer staff always wanting to help especially the kids. Good Omni theater with good sets of movies. Parking is plentiful and convenient. If you get a chance go to the top floor and see the skies thru the telescope. You also get an awesome view of Orlando downtown on a clear day.

My whole family loves going to the science center so much we became members. A lot of different types of exhibits, and one exhibit that changes regularly through the year. We always have lunch at the subway right in the museum. It makes for a great day. Parking is convenient at a parking garage across the street and only $5 if you aren't a member.

My kids love this place. There is plenty for all ages to touch and learn, and its sized just right for an afternoon outing. Unfortunately, because this is a very hands-on museum, some of the exhibits are constantly in disrepair.

The challenges associated with running a learning center dependent on charitable donations is not lost on me. It does become evident after awhile that money is spent on bringing in the flashy exhibits when more should be spent on some upkeep and repairs.

My only other complaint is the food. While I'm not going to review the Subway in the basement, that cheap deli smell does permeate the bottom floors of the building. It does get nauseating after a while.

The Orlando Science Center is an awesome place if you have young kids. I would totally suggest purchasing a family membership over getting single tickets, because you will spend as much as going twice. There is plenty to keep your kids busy for many trips.

This was our second visit to the Science Center when visiting family in Orlando. Both visits have been great. Our kids loved all of the exhibits and had a blast during the visit. We may make this a regular thing when visiting family.

My Daughter Loved it here! We spend about 5 hours here exploring the whole place staff was great, parking was easy, price for parking and entrance for 3 was less then 60 bucks, also came at a great time for story time with the author for one of the books there

Really nice local museum, science center, and planetarium. There is often issue with their phones being answered and sometimes website lags slightly in offerings. There is a strong need to either hire a bit older or do more training with monitoring for customer service skills and attitudes. Been several times and that part never improves. Hearts installation in parking garage to center walkway was amazing.

My family and I had a blast @ Otronicon today!! I don't normally ask for special assistance for my 6 year old daughter(Emilee) w/ Down Syndrome, as a parent I try really hard to treat her the same as my 10 year old son( Evan), just as any regular kiddo her age! She has No problem with regular size lines or waiting her turn.. lol It was a hard struggle..

Otronicon is a Different Awesome type of Experience!!! The Excellent staff which helped the most today were Debra, Tori, Sue, Yunni, and the Very Awesome Staff @ Subway!!!!!
The Amazing young woman manager (1 of 4 managers @ that time). Took 2 mins to Listen to how my Awesome Daughter wouldn't be able to handle the line..lol I asked if i could ask for an appt of 1pm. She gladly accommodated with a smile. We arrived 15 mins early and she came straight to us, took our order. Give my son our drinks, and delivered our food to our table..Top Notch fellows!!!
Even better, I paid in cash and it was on the tray, when the very helpful busser dumped our tray for me. Seeing my hands were full..the money was thrown out by my accident. And he dug in the trash and got it for me..
Now, thats awesome service all around!!!
Thank You Again,
Benjamin Tresca

Well i can say that the decor was nice. Location was great. Why is there a parking charge? The only fun part of this experience was the wild life. Each exhibit has no attendant standing there , so there are little kids and their parents who are extremely unmannered and would stay at a station repeatedly even once a line forms for other kids to get a turn, which can lead to chaos, but their are plenty of attendants when accepting admission fair. Im just trying to understand why are you bringing ya 1 year old who do not understand "stop, "excuse me", or wait ya turn"?it was entirely way too much toddlers running around. Please note stations arent sanitized so make sure you bring your hand sanitizers. Went to the science lab @1:32 while we were approaching the door, the male clerk slammed the door in our face and said nothing very rude , we later noticed a sign that state it closed @1:30.Gift shop was awesome, there is also a subway inside which is really convenient, bathrooms are gross. Tons of renovations going on, will not be back , it was a waste of money.

Had a great time with the family today! Lots of fun exhibits and I don't think we even saw them all!! My 5yo loved It! The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the elevator was a bit of a pain...we had a stroller for our infant and it's tiny and took a lot of time to get from floor to floor. We eventually ended up parking stroller and just carrying everything. But overall great day!!

The Science Center has been here a long time. When I was a kid, this place seemed huge. After going as an adult, I've realized that there's some things left to improve. Overall, it's a wonderful place. I'd still recommend coming here. The staff is polite and attentive.
